« on: December 27, 2016, 09:22:43 pm »
Considering a hardware wallet for your bitcoin or ether? Consider the Ledger Nano S. I just released a video review: https://youtu.be/lUnobRQE5Q8

But I have one BIG concern. Being a "Poof of Stake" coin could someone point me to a video or white paper that describers the current mechanism for current and future coin creation. I mean... with 2.5 billion coins already in circulation, I don't think any more are needed.Great question. Did you see the Chronos Crypto video on the Bitshares inflation rate? It outlines precisely what makes the supply go up (or down). In a nutshell, it's witnesses and workers that increase supply, and fees bring it down. Here's a direct link: https://youtu.be/ohx46JlRzjc
Although you're being sarcastic, now that I think about it, this might actually be a good thing. Imagine if a couple dozen newcomers joined us on the forums with their wacky and wild ideas for worker proposals. Not even considering the profit to shareholders (new workers currently burn 7338 BTS each), that would bring new attention and excitement to the community. Hey, who knows, maybe we would even want to hire one!
How about a video about the worker system.
Explain how you make real money out of it and how others could do the same.
It is a great system and there could be so much more active workers doing great things for BitShares.
Oh , after this video, no one will take money out to buy BTS anymore as they know they can make videos/websites/photos/blog-posts for it .
In fact , I'm thinking about it : Why would I take out my hard earned money to buy 1000USD worth of BTS per month and take financial risks when I could just produce something with the knowledge that I already processed ? I'm sure every potential buyer of BTS has some knowledge or skill to offer to the Blockchain.
I have upgrade my feed script, got GOLD/SILVER price from sina finace, the GOLD price is 1130Great work, @alt! You're setting a great example with your fast response. Unfortunately, the feed could get a little strange until we have more witnesses make the fix...

The extra blurb with the correction is now added. I think this is a big improvement. Good ideas, @tbone! https://youtu.be/eSgsbBTxNfo.Great idea. I'll get that extra annotation added later today when I get the chance. Thanks!P.S. I would really like to see the DPoS error (distributed vs. delegated) fixed, at least in the on-screen graphic. I'm sure that can be done with some editing alone (i.e. no need to re-record).Unfortunately, we can't upload a new video without losing the 1000+ views, along with the 50 likes and 11 comments, on that video. However, I was able to find a way to use YouTube Annotations to update the text. It's not perfect, but it's pretty clean considering the constraints. Check it out! https://youtu.be/eSgsbBTxNfo?t=22s
Ah, ok, I wasn't thinking about that. Anyway, you can barely notice the annotation even if you're looking for it. I think it might also make sense to pop up an annotation for a few seconds correcting what you verbalized so people who notice the inconsistency will know which is correct. What do you think?

I feel like we need more info (video) about :
- Short Selling BitAssets
- maintenance collateral ratio
- maximum short squeeze ratio
- short squeeze protection
- call price
- MARGIN CALL MECHANICS (this is the most important!)
- Create Asset
- all PERMISSIONS & FLAGS
- differences between SMARTCOINS, USER ISSUED ASSETS, PREDICTION MARKET ASSETS
- Vesting balances
- PREDICTION MARKET (the proper way... Amanda's video it's not good enough)

how many referral sign-ups did you make via your videos?Four referrals so far, linked on the blockchain. We can't detect referrals that didn't use the suggested referral link, so there are likely more.
